About This Item
Beginning in 1820 the government of Mexico opened Texas to settlement by foreigners, provided they agreed to abide by the law and be morally upright citizens. This opened the way for many American settlers. Texas declared itself a free republic in March 1836, and shortly thereafter the Vermont Texas Land Company was organized. We can find no record of the company, though it would seem to still have been valid in 1845, when Heman Parkhurst transferred his share to Andrew Tracy, also of Sharon, Vermont.
Unrecorded, and unknown to bibliographers.
